The Chillin' Squirrel by martine Finney

Hi Martine, That is one clever critter. What a pose! I like the way you've darkened the outer area to focus in on the squirrel too. Nice work mate.

Hi Martine, I have to hand it to you excellent work with pastel pencils. Chis is right the pose is just great. I love the hollow tree stumps. As for watermixable oils. I haven't used them yet. I painted both those of Jazza using heavy body acrylic. I treated myself to a small starter box of watermixable oils which I hope to try this weekend. (I will keep you informed with progress) Trouble is I am an impatient painter and tend to mix colours on the canvas as I paint. It's the drying time that will get me. Have you tried any other medium? I use watercolour, Acrylic and watercolour pencil.
